Oct 02, 2021 - Nov 20, 2021
The electric chair image, part of the Death and Disasters series by Warhol, is based on a press photograph depicting the death chamber at Sing Sing prison in New York where American citizens Julius and Ethel Rosenberg were executed. It is devoid of all human presence and is remarkable for its visual sobriety an emotional understatement, the emptiness and stillness of the room represents death as absence and silence.
